until Mr. Cleveland stated what. In hlw

thought the ex-President too indefinite In
speaking about getting hack to Demo

On t?hrl*tinu* day Mr. Bryan sent a dis
patch lo his friends In Eeavenworth,

the twentieth century wllh the confident
belief that the peopli will soon return to

like to know what Mr. llryaii consider*
leaching* of the father* and tradition*
of the republic. If Mr. McKinley were
asked what they were doubtless he would
give an answer quite different from that
which Mr. Bryan would give, and Mr
Cleveland would give an answer different
from that of either.
There l* no probability of a discussion
of the question a* to what the future
policy of the Democratic party should lie
between Mr Cleveland and Mr. Bryan,
because It I* hardly probable that either
will undertake to give a- lean-cut state

THF. POLL T.U MIRIMIPPf.
A disturbing question tn Mississippi Is
that of th* j*ull tax Th** great majority
of thos# Its 14* for th* •x neglect to pay
It. It I* L and the neglect of s* many to
pay it seriously Interfere* with the rais
ing of money for the support of th#
schools.
It j not xp ted that ragr> will p>
It. To* present election laws were penal
ly enacted wlih th* view of shutting them
out from the ballot box, but It aas
thought that If i • white j* op wr#
lr*te. t*l against negro domination there
would b* no dl*|KM*ltlon on their port to
ivoid fioylig the poll tax Tho*. who held
thh* view were, li -**m-. mistaken Th*
number who do*lg* the tax l* so 1 irge
that ad of th* papers In the *tate ar*
discussing ways for enforcing Its roller,
lion.
If a law w*r* ena- ted making tn* pay
m* n of the tax ompulaory the iaw win h
practl ally relieves the negroes from pay
ing it and keeps them away from the tail
lot tIOX woull Ik* defeated. It look- a if
. very largo portion of the white people
want not only to kert* the negroes from
voting but aiwo to avoid |avlng th* poll
tax.
The negro population of Mississippi I#
v*ry large Th census will show in>te
ably that it la as large as the white pop
ulation. If Ihe negron* were allowed to
vote therefore there would ba danger of
n*gro *k*nuntlon unless rn. an- t pre
vent their votes from being counted were
resort**l to. The sentiment of the i |*b
is sgainat h.ilkd box frau*ls. They have
ha i eifOUgh of shat of thing. BuUot
box corruption or violence has a bad ef
fect upon the p*ople. It begins to look,
however, as if a very large percentage
of the people were Indifferent to the r* v
problem.
Primaries are now held In the state and
there i- no incentive therefore o vot- a?
the regular elections, and It d*a*s not re
quire the loivment of the poll tax to vote
ai a primary. But even If there were no
primary th* j*eopl*‘ would hnrdly tak*
much Interest In election* unleiw there
were two white parties nearly equal In
strength. Being practically only one party
the people stay at home on election days,
and keep the money they would hava to
pav a* poll tax.
The situation Is not at all satisfactory
to the thinking people of lha *tat#, but
they do nos seem to know how to Improve
It. If It were not that the poll tax is
grea ly ne*l*d for the support of th*
school* It Is |rohaMe that not*ody would
bother about the tax. even though the
state would suffer by letting few men con
trol it* affairs
The .taking of the ballot from the negro
virtually settled one question, but It
opened another that I* almost a* serious,
llow this latter question Is to be oat tied
no on* appear* to know
IN til.ll It .IMI.Ui MHVfVBO.
It was ho I*-I that the last had been
heard of the army beef ac.snd.il of th
.dpanlsh-Amerlciin war. It i doubtful If
anything new In respect to It van Is
said. (leu. Alger left the cabinet on
account of It and lien. Egan was *u>-
landed from hi* piadtlon because of his
conduct during the Investigation of the
sea it* to I.
It seem*, however. th! fl*n. Alger Is
not satisfied to let th* matter rest where
It is. Evidently he feels tlmt h wa*
not dealt with Justly. He ha* written o
Issik entitled "The War Wllh Spain," an-l
he devotes coneiderald** space to the bee?
scandal It Is said that one rhalder of
the book, the rnapter dealing with the
scandal. It* to npiienr In the January num
br of the North American Review.
Tho understanding some to be tbit
there ! In tho book a very bitter attack
on (Jen. Mile* Should this prove to ti
the case tt Is certain that he will aid
take hts pen in hand and proceed to say
something about Gen. Atger tlait the lat
ter wtll not regard us complimentary
It I* a pity that the scandal |* not per
inl'f-d to rrat. If Gen Alger make.-
charge* against Gen. Mile* he will not
|r. rcnver f tee any of Gen. Miles'
friend* lo hi* wny of viewing the scandal
an-l Gen. Mi;*** a 111 not bring any of
Gen. Alger’* friend* over to hi* side.
it seem* that Gen. Alger feel* that he
will not rest easy in hi* grave
unless he present* to the puMI
some facts respecting the scandal which
he regard* ns necessary lo tho "trutn
of history." It I* Important of course
that history shall be as near the truth
as possible, but It Is doubtful if Gen.
Alger has any contribution to make to
the story of the eoniMtal that Is not si
re.,.ty known, or. if not known, to which
Gen. 'Allies will not make a reply. In
fact. It is Stale-1 that * ten, Miles is ready
for any new matter respecting the scan
di from the Atg * r stanetpoint.
It Is I'omnirtideihlo of course for Hen
Alger to want to put those- wat depart -
menl eifllctaiie wltee served under him In
a* favorable a light ms possible so tar a*
the s< andeti is concerned, but s'* the pub
